LaBeouf was arrested on misdemeanor assault and harassment charges, according to the New York Times.

Police told the New York Times they were called after LaBeouf got into a fight with a man and pulled his scarf, scratching him.

A video of LaBeouf being handcuffed and taken into police custody appeared online.

"How are we going to make this s--- OK to be a Nazi out here?" LaBeouf said in the video. "That's bulls---, bro, it's not OK. He will not divide us."

Two videos show LaBeouf having confrontations with people at the protest, which is being live-streamed. In one, a man stands alongside LaBeouf and says "Hitler did nothing wrong" and LaBeouf shoves him.

LaBeouf's anti-Trump protest invites anyone to stand in the space and repeat "He will not divide us." The live-stream plans to run constantly for four years.

NYPD and a representative for LaBeouf did not immediately respond to Business Insider's requests for comment.
